RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application claims the benefit of U.S. applications with Ser. Nos. 60/936,754 filed Jun. 21, 2007; 60/994,422 filed Sep. 19, 2007; 61/008,395 filed Dec. 19, 2007; and 12/142,846 filed Jun. 20, 2008, the specifications of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entireties.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The invention relates to substituted imidazoheterocycles, and more particularly to substituted tetrahydroimidazo[1,5-α]pyrazine and substituted tetrahydro-5H-imidazo[1,5-α][1,4]diazepine compounds and their use in the prophylaxis and treatment of cannabinoid receptor-associated diseases, disorders and conditions, such as pain, inflammation and pruritis.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Classical cannabinoids such as the marijuana-derived compound Δ⁹-tetra-hydrocannabinol, (Δ⁹-THC) exert their pharmacological effects through interaction with specific members of the G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) family. To date, two cannabinoid receptors have been cloned and characterized: CB1, a receptor found in the mammalian brain and to a lesser extent in peripheral tissues; and CB2, a receptor found primarily in the peripheral tissues, particularly in cells of the immune system. Several endogenous ligands for these cannabinoid receptors, known as endocannabinoids, have been identified. For a review see Hanus, L. O., Discovery and isolation of anandamide and other endocannabinoids, Chem. Biodivers. (2007) 8:1828-41.

Compounds that are modulators of one or both of the cannabinoid receptors have been shown to produce a variety of pharmacological effects that may be of therapeutic benefit in humans (see, for example, Mackie, K., Cannabinoid receptors as therapeutic targets, Ann. Rev. Pharmacol. Toxicol. (2006) 46: 101-122; Pertwee, R. G., The therapeutic potential of drugs that target cannabinoid receptors or modulate the tissue levels or actions of endocannabinoids, AAPS J. (2005) 7:E625-654). The cannabinoid receptor modulator can be an agonist, an inverse agonist or a neutral antagonist, and may interact at the same (orthosteric) site as the endogenous ligand, or at a different (allosteric) site.

Activation of the CB1 receptor in the brain is believed to mediate undesirable psychotropic effects associated with Δ⁹-THC and other centrally acting cannabinoid ligands. As a result, there has been considerable interest in developing compounds that possess high affinity and selectivity for the CB2 receptor (see for example, Raitio, K. H. et al., Targeting the Cannabinoid CB2 Receptor: Mutations, Modelling and Development of selective CB2 ligands, Curr. Med. Chem. (2005) 12: 1217-37). CB2 receptor agonists have shown efficacy in preclinical models of neuropathic and inflammatory pain and may also find application in cancer, multiple sclerosis, osteoporosis, Alzheimer's disease, liver disease and diabetes (Mackie, K.; Ross R A; CB2 cannabinoid receptors: new vistas, Br. J. Pharmacol. (2008) 153: 177-78 and references cited therein). There is an ongoing need to identify new CB2 ligands that exhibit greater receptor selectivity, improved drug-like properties and, for some indications, restriction to the periphery with low or minimal effects on the central nervous system (CNS).

The compounds of the present invention can contain one or more stereogenic centers, depending upon the location and nature of the various substituents desired. These stereogenic centers may be present in the (R) or (S) configuration, resulting in racemic mixtures and/or diastereomeric mixtures. Substituents on a partially or fully saturated ring may also be present in either cis or trans form. All such configurations (including enantiomers and diastereomers) of the compounds described or exemplified herein, are contemplated within the scope of the present invention. Compounds of the invention can also exist as individual stereoisomers or as mixtures in varying ratios (e.g. enantiomerically enriched or racemates). Enantiomeric mixtures of the compounds may be partially or fully resolved through standard purification and/or separation techniques known in the art, including but not limited to chiral chromatography (e.g. chiral derivatized solid phase), formation and separation of diastereomeric salts (e.g. tartaric acid salts or camphorsulfonic acid salts), or enzymatic separation. Diastereomeric mixtures can be separated by techniques well known in the art, based on their physical and/or chemical differences, or by methods described above.

In this specification, salts of a compound of formula I refers to a complex of the compound with an inorganic or organic counter ion or counter ions. For examples, see Handbook of Pharmaceutical Salts: Properties, Selection and Use; Stahl P. H., Wermuth, C. G., Eds.; John Wiley and Sons, 2002. Pharmaceutically useful salts include those obtained by treating the compound, functioning as a base, with an inorganic or organic acid to form a salt or salts. Additional pharmaceutically useful salts include those obtained by treating the compound, functioning as an acid, with an inorganic or organic base to form a salt or salts.

As used herein, the term “solvates” describes a complex wherein the compound is coordinated with a proportional amount of a solvent molecule. Specific solvates, wherein the solvent is water, is referred to as hydrates. Combinations of a drug and propylene glycol (1,2-propanediol) have been used to form pharmaceutical drug solvates. See for example U.S. Pat. No. 3,970,651. Other suitable solvates are hydrates of drug compounds. Such hydrates include hydrates which either have comparable activity or hydrates which are converted back to the active compound following administration.

The compounds of the present invention described and exemplified herein modulate a signal that regulates a biological activity, by modulating the activity of a cannabinoid receptor. Modulation of a cannabinoid receptor can be effected by a compound of the present invention acting as an agonist, a partial agonist, inverse agonist or an antagonist upon binding at a cannabinoid receptor such as CB2 and/or CB1. The modulation of a cannabinoid receptor can be activation by compound of the present invention acting an agonist. Alternatively, the modulation of a cannabinoid receptor can be inhibition or deactivation by an antagonist. One particular signal regulated by CB2 is the intracellular concentration of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP).

The term ‘agonist’ as used herein means a molecule that produces a physiological response by activating a receptor.

The term ‘inverse agonist’ as used herein means a molecule that tends to reverse the effect of an agonist. Current theory holds that this occurs due to the higher affinity of the inverse agonist for binding the inactive conformation over the active conformation of the receptor.

The term ‘antagonist’ as used herein means a molecule that binds a receptor and thereby interferes with the interaction of an agonist and its cognate receptor, or blocks the constitutive activity of the receptor.

The term ‘neutral antagonist’ as used herein means a molecule that binds a receptor with equal affinity for the active and inactive conformations and thereby inhibits receptor activity by competing with an agonist.

As used herein, “effective amount” or “sufficient amount” of the compound of the invention refers to an amount of the compound as described herein that may be therapeutically effective to inhibit, prevent, or treat a symptom of a particular disease, disorder, condition, or side effect.

As used herein, “pharmaceutically acceptable” refers to compounds, materials, compositions, and/or dosage forms which are, within the scope of sound medical judgment, suitable for contact with the tissues of human beings and animals without severe toxicity, irritation, allergic response, or other complications, commensurate with a benefit-to-risk ratio that is reasonable for the medical condition being treated.

As used herein, a “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” refers to a derivative of a compound wherein the parent compound is modified by making an acid or a base salt thereof. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable salts include, but are not limited to, mineral or organic acid salts of basic residues such as amines; alkali or organic salts of acidic residues such as carboxylic acids and the like.

The pharmaceutically acceptable salts include the conventional non-toxic salts or the quaternary ammonium salts of the parent compound formed, for example, from non-toxic inorganic or organic acids. For instance, such conventional non-toxic salts include those derived from inorganic acids such as hydrochloric, hydrobromic, sulfuric, sulfamic, phosphoric, nitric acids and the like; and the salts prepared from organic acids such as acetic, propionic, succinic, glycolic, stearic, lactic, malic, tartaric, citric, ascorbic, pamoic, maleic, hydroxymaleic, phenylacetic, glutamic, benzoic, salicylic, sulfanilic, 2-acetoxybenzoic, fumaric, toluenesulfonic, methanesulfonic, ethane disulfonic, oxalic, isethionic acids, and the like.

The compositions can be administered for prophylaxis or treatment of individuals suffering from, or at risk of a disease or a disorder. Prophylaxis is defined as a measure designed to preserve the health of an individual.

For therapeutic applications, a pharmaceutical composition is typically administered to a subject suffering from a disease, condition or disorder, in an amount sufficient to inhibit, prevent, or ameliorate the disease or disorder. An amount adequate to accomplish this is defined as a “therapeutically effective dose.”

The pharmaceutical compositions of the invention can be administered to a mammal for prophylactic or therapeutic purposes in any of the above-described formulations and delivery modes. The mammal can be any mammal, such as a domesticated or feral mammal, or even a wild mammal. The mammal can be any mammal, such as for instance a primate, ungulate, canine or feline. For instance, and without limitation, the mammal can be a pet or companion animal, such as a dog or a cat; a high-value mammal such as a thoroughbred or show animal; a farm animal, such as a cow, a goat, a sheep or pig; or a primate such as an ape or monkey.

Diethoxyacetonitrile (Compound 1-1) reacts with a 3-iminopropionate ester 1-2 to provide the acetal 1-3. The acetal is converted to the aldehyde 1-4 in acidic conditions such as in the presence of acetic acid. Reductive amination of 1-4 with 1-5 using an appropriately protected hydroxylamine (1-5, PG=protecting group, such as benzyl), provides 1-6.

Conversion of the alcohol to a chloride, 1-7, is accomplished by reaction with a chlorinating reagent such as thionyl chloride. Upon heating with the appropriate base, the compound of formula 1-7 cyclizes to 1-8. Bromination of 1-8 using NBS or bromine provides ester 1-9. (Alternatively, chlorination of 1-8 is accomplished by reacting with NCS).

Hydrolysis of the ester to the acid 1-10 using, for example, a base such as lithium hydroxide followed by coupling of an amine to the acid using a coupling reagent such as EDCI or TBTU or HBTU yields the desired amide 1-11. Alternatively, treatment of acid 1-10 with a chlorination reagent such as thionyl chloride provides acid chloride 1-14 which is then treated with an amine to provide compound of formula 1-11.

Coupling of the bromide 1-11 with a boronic acid under Suzuki reaction conditions gives 1-12. The protecting group is then removed using conditions appropriate to the particular protecting group, to provide compound 1-13. See Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis. 2nd Ed.

Alternatively, the amine 2-1 is acylated with a chloroformate derivative or an acid chloride, or sulfonylated with a sulfonyl chloride under basic conditions (such as triethylamine) to give 2-3, 2-4 or 2-5, respectively. In another alternative, the amine of 2-1 is treated with a carboxylic acid using a coupling reagent such as EDCI to provide 2-4.

Reductive amination of 2-1 with an aldehyde or ketone in the presence of a hydride source such as sodium triacetoxyborohydride provides 2-6.

Alternatively, intermediate 3-1 is reacted with a boronic acid or boronic pinacol ester (for example phenylboronic acid) using an appropriate metal catalyst such as palladium acetate or Pd(Ph₃P)₄ to provide 3-4.

Treatment of a compound of formula 3-1 with a vinyl tin or borane using an appropriate metal catalyst (such as Pd-(dppf)Cl₂ or Pd(Ph₃P)₄) provides compound 4-2. Alternatively, intermediate 3-1 is reacted with a substituted alkyne such as ethynyl benzene or 3-ethynyl pyridine using an appropriate metal catalyst such as, for instance, CuI with triphenylphosphine and a base for example K₂CO₃ to provide 4-3. Treatment of a compound of formula 4-2 with hydrogen gas under pressure in the presence of a metal catalyst such as palladium on carbon provides compound 4-4. Treatment of 3-1 with an organozinc compound such as 2-thiazolyl bromide in the presence of a catalyst such as Pd-(dppf)Cl₂ or PdCl₂(Ph₃P)₂ and CuI provides a compound of formula 4-5.

Treatment of a compound of formula 3-1 with a base such as tert-butyl lithium or isopropyl magnesium chloride followed by an electrophile such as a Weinreb amide or aldehyde provides compounds 5-1 and 5-2.

Treatment of a compound of formula 6-1 with methyl iodide provides a compound of formula 6-2.

Treatment of a compound of formula 7-1 with a Grignard reagent such as isopropyl magnesium chloride and N,O-dimethylhydroxylamine provides a compound of formula 7-2. Reaction of a Grignard reagent, such as neopentylmagnesium chloride, with compound 7-2 provides a compound of formula 7-3.

Treatment of a compound of formula 8-1 shown in Scheme 8, below, with an amino ester, such as methyl 2-amino-3,3-dimethylbutanoate, and a coupling reagent such as EDC or TBTU provides compound 8-2. Compound 8-2 is hydrolyzed with a base such as lithium hydroxide to provide the carboxylic acid 8-3.

Treatment of compound 8-3 with an amidoxime derivative such as (Z)-N′-hydroxyacetimidamide provides 8-4 which upon reaction with fluoride anion (for example TBAF) yields compound 8-5. Alternatively, reacting a compound of formula 8-3 with an amine such as ethylamine using a coupling reagent such as TBTU or EDC provides a compound of formula 8-6.

Treatment of compound 8-3 with a hydrazide such as acetohydrazide and a coupling reagent such as TBTU or EDC provides 9-1, which then provides 9-2 upon further treatment with Burgess reagent.

Treatment of a compound of formula 10-1 with an amine such as methylamine hydrochloride and a coupling reagent such as TBTU or EDC provides compound 10-2. Removal the protecting group (for example, a tert-butyloxycarbonyl group, removed with an acid, such at TFA) yields a compound of formula 10-3.

As shown in Scheme 11, below, treatment of a compound of formula 2-1 with a substituted boronic acid or dioxaborolane such as 1,4-dioxaspiro[4.5]dec-7-en-8-ylboronic acid provides a compound of formula 11-1. Reduction of the double bond with hydrogen gas using a metal catalyst such as palladium on carbon followed by treatment with acid such as hydrogen chloride gives compound of formula 11-2. Treatment of 11-2 with a fluorinating reagent such as DAST provides compound 11-3.

Screening Methods

The ability of compounds to act as agonists or inverse agonists at human CB2 and CB1 receptors (hCB2, hCB1, respectively) and at the rat CB2 receptor (rCB2) was determined by measuring changes in intracellular cAMP levels. Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO-K1) cell lines stably expressing hCB2 (Genebank: X74328) or hCB1 (Genebank: X54937) were purchased from Euroscreen (Gosselies, Belgium). The rat CB2 receptor was expressed from genomic DNA (provided by M. Abood, Calif. Pacific Medical Center) in CHO-K1 cells from expression plasmid vector, pcDNA3.1.

Cell lines were grown in suspension in EX-CELL 302 CHO Serum-free medium (Sigma, cat #14324C) supplemented with 1% Fetal Bovine Serum, glutamine and non-essential amino-acids under 0.4 mg/mL G418 selection.

Receptor mediated responses were determined by measuring changes in intracellular cAMP using LANCE cAMP detection kit (cat #AD0264, Perkin Elmer, Wellesley, Mass.) based on time-resolved fluorescence resonance energy transfer (TR-FRET). Changes in cAMP were determined in cells pre-incubated with IBMX (isobutyl methylxanthine) and prestimulated with NKH-477 (a water soluble forskolin derivative, cat #1603, Tocris, Ellisville, Mo.) to increase basal cAMP levels as detailed below.

On the day of the experiment, cells were spun at low speed for 5 min at room temperature. The supernatant was removed and cells were resuspended in stimulation buffer (Hanks Buffered Salt Solution/5 mM HEPES, containing 0.5 mM IBMX (cat #17018, Sigma) and 0.02% BSA (Perkin-Elmer, cat #CR84-100)). Cell clumps were removed by filtering through cell strainer 40 μm (BD Falcon, Discovery Labware, Bedford, Mass.) and diluted to 2×10⁵ cells/mL. Antibody supplied with the LANCE cAMP immunoassay kit was then added according to the manufacturer's instructions. An aliquot of cells was taken for un-induced controls. To the remaining cells was added NKH-477 (a water soluble forskolin derivative, Tocris cat #1603) to a final concentration of 2-8 μM. Cells were then incubated for 30 min at room temperature prior to adding to Proxiplates containing test compounds (final DMSO concentration was less than 0.5%) with a Multidrop bulk dispenser, followed by a sixty minute incubation at room temperature. The response was stopped by addition of the detection mix supplied with the LANCE kit. The reagents were allowed to equilibrate for three hours prior to reading on an Envision multi-mode detector (Perkin-Elmer). TR-FRET was measured using a 330-380 nm excitation filter, a 665 nm emission filter, dichroic mirror 380 nm and Z=1 mm. Cyclic AMP concentrations in each well were back-calculated from a cAMP standard curve run concurrently during each assay. Each plate contained 16 wells of forskolin stimulated cells and 16 wells of forskolin plus CP55,940-treated cells. Cells were treated with 1 μM CP55,940 (Tocris cat. # 0949). Concentrations of cAMP were expressed as a percent of the difference of these two groups of wells. Concentration-response data including EC₅₀ (the concentration of compound producing 50% of the maximal response) and intrinsic activity (the percent maximal activation compared to full activation by CP55,940) were determined using a four-parameter non-linear regression algorithm (Xlfit equation 251, IDBS).

EXAMPLE 85 Determination of EC₅₀ Values for Compounds at Human and Rat Cannabinoid Receptors

Tables IIA, IIB and IIC, below show compounds (1)-(607) and Tables IIIA and IIIB show compounds (608)-(914) grouped by EC₅₀ ranges. For convenience, the ranges were chosen as follows: The most potent group of compounds was classified in an EC₅₀ range from 0.1 nM to 10 nM. The second most potent group was classified in an EC₅₀ range from greater than 10 nM to 100 nM. The third most potent group was classified in an EC₅₀ range from greater than 100 nM to 10 μM. Finally, the fourth group classified by potency had an EC₅₀ of greater than 10 μM as determined by the above method.

The EC₅₀ range for each of the compounds 1-607 determined against the human CB2 receptor (hCB2 EC₅₀) is shown in Table IIA.

Table IIIA shows the hCB2 EC₅₀ ranges for compounds 608-914.

The EC₅₀ range for each of the compounds 1-607 determined against the rat CB2 receptor is shown in Table IIB.

The EC₅₀ range for each of the compounds 1-607 determined against the human CB1 receptor (hCB1 EC₅₀) is shown in Table IIC.

EXAMPLE 86 Anti-Hyperalgesia in an Inflammatory Pain Model

The anti-hyperalgesic effects of test compounds in the Complete Freund's Adjuvant (CFA) model of inflammatory pain was examined as described below. Male Sprague-Dawley rats (Hsd:Sprague-Dawley®™SD®™, Harlan, Indianapolis, Ind.) weighing 201±1 grams, were housed three per cage. Animals had free access to food and water and were maintained on a twelve hour light/dark schedule for the entire duration of the experiment. Approximately 12 hours prior to behavioral testing, animals were placed on wire mesh bottom cages with free access to water but no access to food. Test compounds were prepared in 50% PEG-400 (Sigma-Aldrich, cat. P3265). Indomethacin (Fluka, cat 57413) was suspended in 0.5% methylcellulose (Sigma-Aldrich, cat. 274429). Groups of eight animals were anesthetized with 2-3% isoflurane and local inflammation induced by 50 μl CFA (Sigma-Aldrich, cat F5881, Mycobacterium tuberculosis 1 mg/ml) injected subcutaneously into the plantar surface of the left paw.

Assessment of mechanical hyperalgesia: Baseline and post-treatment withdrawal thresholds to a noxious mechanical stimulus were measured using the Randall-Selitto paw pressure apparatus (Ugo Basile Analgesymeter, model 7200). This apparatus generates a linearly increasing mechanical force. The stimulus was applied to the plantar surface of the hind paws by a dome-shaped plastic tip placed between the third and fourth metatarsus. To avoid tissue damage, a cut-off pressure was set at 390 grams. Mechanical thresholds were defined as the force in grams at the first pain behavior, which includes paw withdrawal, struggle, and/or vocalization. Indomethacin (30 mg/kg, p.o.) served as the positive control. Mechanical hyperalgesia was measured using the Randall-Selitto paw pressure device before CFA injection and after intraperitoneal (i.p.) compound administration over a twenty-four-hour period. The mean and standard error of the mean (SEM) were determined for the injured and normal paws for each treatment group. The results for Compound 91 as compared with vehicle alone are shown in FIG. 1. No side effects were observed during the course of the experiment.

EXAMPLE 87 Inhibition of Acetic Acid-Induced Writhing in Mice

This test identifies compounds which exhibit analgesic activity against visceral pain or pain associated with activation of low pH-sensitive nociceptors [see Barber and Gottschlich (1986) Med. Res. Rev. 12: 525-562; Ramabadran and Bansinath (1986) Pharm. Res. 3: 263-270]. Intraperitoneal administration of dilute acetic acid solution causes a writhing behavior in mice. A writhe is defined as a contraction of the abdominal muscles accompanied by an extension of the forelimbs and elongation of the body. The number of writhes observed in the presence and absence of test compounds is counted to determine the analgesic activity of the compounds.

Male ICR mice, 20-40 grams in weight, were weighed and placed in individual observation chambers (usually a 4000 ml beaker) with a fine layer of rodent bedding at the bottom. To determine the activity and potency of test compounds, different doses of the compound solution or vehicle were injected subcutaneously in the back of the neck 30 minutes prior to administration of acetic acid solution. After administration of the compound or vehicle control, mice were returned to their individual observation chambers awaiting the intraperitoneal administration of acetic acid solution. Thirty minutes later, 10 ml/kg of a 0.6% (v/v) acetic acid solution was then injected into the right lower quadrant of the abdomen. Immediately after the injection, the mouse was returned to its observation chamber and the recording of the number of writhes begun immediately. The number of writhes was counted over a 15-min period starting from the time of acetic acid injection. Raw data were analyzed using a one-way ANOVA followed by Dunnett's post-tests. For dose-response analysis, raw data were converted to % maximum possible effect (% MPE) using the formula: % MPE=((Wc−Wv)/(0−Wv))*100, where Wc is the number of writhes in compound-treated mice and Wv is the mean number of writhes in vehicle-treated mice. The dose which elicited 50% attenuation of hypersensitivity (ED50) was determined using linear regression analysis. (Tallarida & Murray, 1987).

Dose response relationships were established for compounds 317 and 366 by subcutaneous injection of doses equivalent to 3, 10 and 30 mg/kg given 30 minutes before intraperitoneal injection of the acetic acid solution. The number of writhes observed in treated an untreated animals were compared and the results are shown in FIG. 2.

EXAMPLE 88 Carrageenan Model of Acute Inflammation

Acute inflammation was produced in rats by injecting 0.1 mL of 2% λ-carrageenan (type IV; Sigma, St. Louis, Mo.) into one hind paw. Carrageenan treatment elicited a marked hind paw swelling (edema) relative to the non-injected paw. At various time points following carrageenan injection, paw volume measurements were taken for both hind paws using a plethysmometer (Stoelting). Briefly, the rat was gently held under the arms with one hand, and its ankle was stabilized with the other hand, each paw was dipped (for a duration of ˜sec, i.e., sufficient time to get a stable reading) into a known volume of fluid and total fluid displacement was recorded. Animals were administered vehicle or test compounds prior to carrageenan administration. A statistically significant reduction in hind paw volume relative to the vehicle-treated control group was interpreted as an anti-inflammatory effect.

FIG. 3A shows the results obtained when compound 317 was administered subcutaneously at a dose of 3 or 30 mg/kg thirty minutes before carrageenan treatment. FIG. 3B shows the results obtained with compound 366 administered orally at doses of 1, 3 and 10 mg/kg, thirty minutes before carrageenan treatment.

EXAMPLE 89 Spinal Nerve Ligation (SNL) Model

The SNL model (Kim and Chung 1992) was used to induce chronic neuropathic pain in rats. The rats were anesthetized with isoflurane, the left L5 transverse process was removed, and the L5 and L6 spinal nerves were tightly ligated with 6-0 silk suture. The wound was then closed with internal sutures and external staples. Following at least seven days post SNL, baseline, post-injury and post-treatment values for non-noxious mechanical sensitivity were evaluated using eight Semmes-Weinstein filaments (Stoelting, Wood Dale, Ill., USA) with varying stiffness (0.4, 0.7, 1.2, 2.0, 3.6, 5.5, 8.5, and 15 g) according to the up-down method (Chaplan et al. 1994). Animals were placed on a perforated metallic platform and allowed to acclimate to their surroundings for a minimum of thirty minutes before testing. The mean and standard error of the mean (SEM) were determined for the injured paw in each treatment group. Since this stimulus is normally not considered painful, significant injury-induced increases in responsiveness in this test are interpreted as a measure of mechanical allodynia. The dose which elicited 50% attenuation of mechanical hypersensitivity (ED₅₀) was determined using linear regression analysis. Results obtained after oral administration of compound 317 at 3, 10 and 30 mg/kg and with compound 366 at 1, 3 and 10 mg/kg are shown in FIG. 4.
